I decided to make an artisan loaf with a twist…. Literally! Here’s my 3 strand braid sourdough artisan loaf. Each strand has different inclusions.
Strand One: Pepperoni, Roasted Garlic & Mozzarella
Strand Two: Jalapeno, Cheddar & Bacon
Strand Three: Prosciutto, Roasted Garlic & Swiss
It is absolutely delicious!!! It has that classic sourdough artisan loaf taste and chew and each bite offers a different taste and texture of inclusion. It’s a flavor explosion in your mouth. as you can see there’s areas where there are gaps between the crust and the filling. Why did that happen? Did I not roll the strand tight enough? Is it because this loaf has no score? Tia for answering and teaching me how to resolve this on future bakes. Thank you to for always being so encouraging and giving me teachable moments. I took his advice to get one bread recipe and stick with it until I perfect it. I’m definitely working on that. The bread recipe here is the one I’ve begun making over and over. Thank you Gaylord!!
